Lombardy Chiropractic Clinics October 2017 Healthy Newsletter
Augusta knee pain is a pain that Lombardy Chiropractic Clinic sees a lot. Pain meds and surgical procedures are commonly recommended while a new non-surgical chiropractic approach is showing good results. Principles of Cox® Technic flexion distraction and decompression - a technique utilized in clinic daily for Augusta back pain and neck pain relief - were amended for use with knee pain. They demonstrated success in lessening knee pain. Overall, the mean pain scores for knee pain patients fell from 7.7 to 1.8 on a 10 point scale 1 least pain, 10 most pain in a mean of 5.3 visits over 3 weeks. More specifically, acute knee pain patients’ pain scores fell even more from a mean of 8.1 to 1.1 in 4.8 treatments in 2.4 weeks. Chronic knee pain patients’ scores fell from 7.5 to 2.2 in 5.4 treatments in 3.3 weeks. No one in the study had any adverse reactions. (1) It's gentle, relieving, and comfortable.
